Korn - All Mixed Up Audio CD

A fair review of the Korn "All Mixed Up" Audio CD. Please note that the below review is the views of the authors, and authors only. You can get a complete list of all Korn reviews here, or go back to the Korn tabs.

Korn Band: Korn
Title: All Mixed Up
Rating:
Release Date: 2001-02-09
Media: Audio CD

Tracks: 1: A.D.I.D.A.S. [Radio Mix] 2: Good God [Dub Pistols Mix] 3: Got the Life [Josh Abraham Remix] 4: Twist/Chi [Live] 5: Jingle Balls [#]

Only reccomended for hardcore Korn Kollectors
Starts off with ADIDAS radio mix, but it isn't even a mix, it's an edited version. This is really a weak cd. Good God, Dub Pistols remix sucks, it's 7 minutes, with boring repetative vocals, and screaming noises. The Got the Life mix is the reason this album gets the extra star, easily the best track on here. Twistchi is boring, and Jingle Balls is really kinda disturbing.
Also i really don't think this cd earned it's explicit rating. Only one song is explicit (DPR).

Buy It Now
Track two contains the best drum solo I've ever heard with vocals that come in around half way through the song. If you like rock or metal and even those who must call themselves emo you will like this album. There is a siren that sounds in the background and even a few guitar parts. My system responds excellently to this track. Twist is always a classic Korn song though it was not on their first album, then Life Is Peachy sort of came out better in a different sort of way in comparison with the original Untitled album. Jingle Balls goes great with Christmas time and gets attention from everyone good or bad if you play it loud enough. You can't go wrong with this album, All Mixed Up, it really doesn't cost much either so I say buy it now hurry up go get your credit card.

A great bargain...here's why
I was in a Hot Topic store to blow what was left of my wallet on a few T-shirts (One of which happened to be a Korn shirt) and a CD. I bought this EP by accident. I didn't have enough for Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory" but this one caught my eye so I bought it since it was in my price range of ten dollars.

I took it home, slipped my Korn shirt on and played it all the way through on my little CD player. Yuck. The collective tracks you will hear are mostly re-mixes, with the exception of a live performance (Twist/Chi) and an unreleased track (The painfully bad Jingle Balls, but they were obviously joking around so they deserve the benefit of the doubt). First there's the radio edit of "A. D. I. D. A. S", and if you own "Life Is Peachy" already, you're going to start questioning the value of this EP and what better use those ten dollars could have made.

The re-mix of "Good God" is completely unrecognizable and the "Got the Life" re-mix happens to be the only track worth listening to along with the live Twist/Chi performance.

You should probably save your money unless you have a lot to spend and/or want your curiosity to guide you. I wouldn't even recommend this to a die-hard Korn fan. .


Mixed Bag
If you collect their imports and various other releases, and plan to continue, you will most likely scoop up all the material on here elsewhere. Whether or not you need Korn's "All Mixed Up" release really depends on how much you follow the band. However, if you are a Korn fan on a budget, and aren't interested in tracking down all of their minor releases, "All Mixed Up" is a worthwhile purchase. Originally released as a bonus disc for Korn's 1999 album "Issues" is Australia, "All Mixed Up" is a four song collection consisting of three remixes, one live performance and one unreleased studio track. The radio remix of "A. D. I. D. A. S. " starts it off. We've all heard this version, it's the same as in the music video (and if you actually have a station that plays it, you heard it on the radio). It's a pretty useless addition. The Dub Pistols remix of "Good God" is definitely not up to par. There are probably more remixes for "Good God" than any other Korn song, and most of them are better than this. The Josh Abraham remix of "Got The Life," however, is probably the best I've heard of the song and is pretty hard to find (appearing only on the out of print "Falling Away From Me (2)" import single). The live performance of "Twist/Chi" is taken from the "Family Values '98" CD and chances are you already own that disc, but it is still a great performance. Finally, the last song, "Jingle Balls," Korn's second Christmas song, actually sounds nothing like Korn. Very interesting to hear, and it is probably worth buying this EP alone for. So there you have it. As I stated before, this release isn't really neccessary for completists, as you can find all this stuff anywhere else, but if you don't plan on scouting out all things Korn, this is a good, wallet-friendly place to stop.
